Most Helpful Positive Review AMAZING (and I don't even like BB creams) This is AMAZING. I was so shockingly surprised at how awesome this is! I NEVER use BB creams long-term b/c they just don't work.
This provides awesome coverage w/o being cakey or thick.
It has a gorgeous, dewy (but not oily) look to it; and the coloring is stunning.
I have REALLY oily skin and I still have to blot throughout the day, but this gives my skin such an awesome, clean, glowing and pretty look. AND - I'm getting my SPF on w/o breaking out.
Love this SO much!
Most Helpful Critical Review good for very pale skin tones PROS: The "Light" shade is great for very fair/pale skin tones! I have very pale skin with cool undertones, freckles, and blue eyes so the lightest shade in most BB creams are still too dark/yellow for me. This formula has a physical sunscreen, rather than chemical sunscreen which is great for sensitive skin.
CONS: This stuff separated SO BAD after a couple of hours on me. It looked like there was a white film on my face where the pigment separated from the sunscreen. I also have combo skin with dry patches and it would cling to my dry spots. Also this BB did have a bit of a funky smell - however I think if you're used to using natural/hippy products that probably won't be much of an issue (a lot of the Burt's Bees products do have kind of a weird scent to them).
So as much as I love the shade of this, this one is getting returned unfortunately.
Reviewed by 295 customers It's an okay product. Just kind of an eh product. 2

Just kind of an eh product. I've used BB cream before and that one just covered a lot better and held its color really well. This one gets cakey really fast.
Lightweight Foundation that Makes you Glow 5
Crystal V from undisclosed
I have been loving Burt's Bees BB Cream for a few years now! I use it as a foundation for my makeup and love how lightweight and sheer it feels. After finding this product, I said "goodbye" to any thicker-based, heavy foundations. When applied with a dampened makeup sponge, BB Cream goes on effortlessly and doesn't cake. I love the fact that it has natural moisturizers and SPF Protection. Who knew that wearing makeup actually makes your skin look and feel better?! In the case of this BB Cream, it really does!
My favorite 5
Jess from Everywhere
It's not a full coverage type of foundation but since I have really dry skin I can't use full coverage type stuff. So this is perfect for my skin type. It doesn't dry out my skin and leaves a dewy look. Doesn't smell the best at first but the smell goes away. It doesn't make my skin break out either which is nice. If you like a light foundation give this a try. So far it's the only foundation can wear that doesn't dry my skin out.
unrequited love? 5

Bring back!! 5
Nick B from MO
Please, bring this back!! I have looked all over town and now on your site and can't find it anywhere!
It caused a breakout 2
Grace89 from Australia
My skin is acne prone and i was trying to find a tinted sunscreen so i looked at this and i was outraged it's caused the worst break out i have had.
Oily and chalky...? 2
Ex BB Fan from Denver, Co
The shades are light so go up a shade. This is surprisingly thick, chalky but still greasy. It's messy. It separates really bad -don't try squeezing anything out without shaking it very well. Kind of like an oily medium coverage foundation but with light coverage. This stuff gave me gaping pores after just a few hours.
I really wanted this to work. I tried to make this work for 6 months now and it's just not great no matter how I wear it or what I mix it with.
I've been a dedicated BB cosmetic fan since the late 90's when the make up and products weren't fussy and competing with conventional makeup. The original cosmetics were so different, simple, the most skin friendly, reliable and came in durable recyclable aluminum pots -not plastic. The older products were far better than anything new. Why they couldn't stay in such a successful lane, IDK. I'm moving away from the BB cosmetics and skincare entirely. I don't even feel like I know this brand anymore. Every new BB cosmetic product container has just ended up unfinished and sent off to the landfill. It's just wasteful.
Love this stuff! 5
Katemac from Chincoteague Island Virginia
This is a really great light coverage product. I am retired and still using this, the problem is I cannot get this in light. I have filled out notify me 3 times. I would appreciate receiving a notice if it is ever going to be available or have you discontinued the light shade. Thanks.
Best Natural BB Cream 5
jpjg from undisclosed
Product goes on smoothly and lasts all day. Includes spf and has good coverage.
Heavier than other BB creams 3
mermaid4uus from Northern Ohio
I have been experimenting with different BB creams and decided to give this one a try. The smell is pleasant and color seemed to match my light skin tone but I think the product was a little too thick for a BB cream. It didn't go on as easily as other creams, such as the Maybelline Dream BB Fresh and didn't blend as well for me. This would be a good product I think for someone looking for a BB/ foundation combo because this seemed to provide a little more coverage. I also think this product would be good for winter wear because it is thicker and would provide more protection. For me though its just too thick for summer wear.
So far Im impressed 5
hairgal from Kendallville IN
I just discovered this yesterday and I like it! I usually wear regular foundation but this is great when I want a more natural look. I am not crazy about the fact that it smells like oranges but I guess thats more natural than some chemical flowery smell. I am new to BB creams and have tried one other but it was watery and too dark. This one in the light color is just right. Its thicker and when applied with a brush gives a nice luminous look without the slick shine.
My favorite skin product 5
cocobean from WA
I absolutely love this stuff, I feel like it makes me look so glowy and healthy. Absolutely adore the light coverage and how it doesn't ever cling to dry patches. I think it even looks better after a couple hours of wear.
Love the product, but need darker colors 4
BlondNeedsDarkerColor from Sedona, AZ
I'm blond, blue/green eyes with a fairly light complexion. I got away with Light-Medium when I lived in WI during the winter, but now that I'm out more in the summer, the Medium is just way too light colored for me. In other brands of liquid foundation, I always had to get the lightest shade available. I love this product and how it feels on the skin, but it's just way too light for me. Why don't you offer more colors?
Love love love!! 5
Emmalemon385 from Utah
Best thing ever for my face!! It works well with my skin, feels so smooth, smells so good, it's light, basically summer on my face!!!
Two shades, really? 3
ait from U.S.
I overall liked the consistency, ingredients and price of this product, but the shade range is terrible. The lightest shade looks like a grayish brown color and not even remotely close to my skin tone. Please actually make a full shade range for all different skin tones!
Amazing! 5
Yellie from Ohio
Love this bb cream. It makes my skin look amazing and the more i use it the better my skin looks.
Best BB Cream ever! 5
LMcarty from Kansas City
I have used this product for 3 years and my skin loves it! SPF 15 and I wear it as a foundation/moisturizer.
almost perfect 3
hannahbanana45 from Seattle, WA
As a woman of color, this product is disappointing. It provides beautiful, natural coverage with the right balance of moisture and color, but the shade range is not very inclusive for women of color. We love makeup too!
Great lightweight product! 4
Meg from Illinois
I've got sensitive skin and this is safe to use! It doesn't feel like you're wearing anything and it's very easy to apply. The match for my skin tone is also perfect!
Favorite BB cream but where are the darker shades? 3
Lala Murray from Connecticut
This is my favorite BB cream and I have been using it for a couple years now. I love the way it looks and feels. Thankfully, there is a shade that works for me, but I am only giving this three stars instead of the five it could deserve because I believe Burts Bees needs to create a wider range of darker shades. I cannot recommend this to all of my family and friends because there are no darker shades to match everyone. I know that it blends in fairly sheer but it is just not good enough right now. Let's do better, Burts Bees!
Please don't discontinue this! 5
MagicMama from US
This is the only product I have found in a long time that actually matches my skin tone and doesn't contain coconut oil or chemical sunscreen. I love the way it works on my extremely dry skin, and how my skin looks better after removing this product than it did before applying.
Great Clean BB Cream 5
Kelly from Pennsylvania
I initially tried this because this BB cream is non-toxic. If you are looking for a fuller coverage clean bb cream/foundation look at Pacifica Beauty, but this product is great. It provides light to medium coverage, blends well, looks natural, and I love that it is SPF 15. For that alone, this is a great product. Reading the reviews, I was worried about the smell. I don't mind it or find it bad - if anything it reminds me of sunscreen lotion or other bb creams. It is very mild, and the scent is only present at application. Definitely will repurchase!
Surprisingly disappointed 1
Lori K from St Paul, MN
Tried the darkest shade available, and it's too light. I'm of European descent with light brown hair; a solid "medium" in all tinted moisturizers I've tried in other lines. Also, the texture is chalky. I tried mixing it with other Burt's Bees moisturizers, which made it even more chalky. I really like all the other skin products, having recently switched from Cetaphil. A tinted moisturizer with SPF is a priority for me, though, so much that I may explore other lines.
White cast + Stinky 1
Sierra from Texas
I had high hopes for this product. I'm usually a light in most creams, so that's what I got in this BB cream. However, it made me look horribly white, basically sick-looking or ghostly. Smells awful as well. Disappointed.
fantastic 5
cashbrook from southern utah
it runs when wet. but living near vegas, it isn't a big worry.
